Fluoroscopy: Regulation and Radiation Protection
VLM1505
Course Type: Online Course
Cost: $16.50
Course Length: 1 Hr 30 Mins
Credits: 1.5
Credit Type: CE
Fluoroscopy procedures can expose patients and personnel to high levels of radiation, an area of public and regulatory concern. Radiologic technologists, radiologist assistants and other professionals operating fluoroscopic units or assisting in fluoroscopy procedures are legally and ethically responsible for operating equipment safely and taking proper radiation protection measures. One way of fulfilling this responsibility is to understand the federal and state regulations regarding fluoroscopy and to follow practices that reduce radiation exposure during medical imaging procedures. In addition to describing various international groups and federal agencies that have a hand in developing radiation protection standards, Marlene Johnson, M.Ed., R.T.(R), unravels the federal laws and regulations governing fluoroscopy and radiation protection. Approved for 1.5 Category A+ CE credit by the ASRT.

Fluoroscopy: Radiation Protection of the Eye
VLM1504
Course Type: Online Course
Cost: $33.00
Course Length: 3 Hrs
Credits: 3.0
Credit Type: CE
Fluoroscopy delivers the highest occupational radiation doses experienced by medical imaging professionals. Although fluoroscopy operators routinely wear lead aprons and other personal shielding, they might not use eye protection, making radiation exposure of the eyes a significant safety issue. Veteran medical writer Bryant Furlow, B.A., has pulled together the most comprehensive, in-depth research on eye anatomy and visual system diseases for this exceptional article. Mr. Furlow covers every aspect of radiation protection of the eye, from the changing dose thresholds for radiation cataract formation to strategies to minimize radiation dose to the eyes. Approved for 3 Category A+ CE credit by the ASRT.
